The wraiths in Lord of the Rings are the Ringwraiths, or Nazgul, servants of Sauron. They were once kings of men, but Sauron gave to them the Nine rings of power, and eventually they were consumed and ensalved to Sauron's will. In the Halo game series, wraiths are a type of tank.

Why doesn't Frodo just wear the ring?
It is too dangerous to wear! The more one wears it the more control it gets over you. And Sauron can see him when he wears the ring, leaving him exposed to the ring wraiths.

Can ring wraiths die in Lord of the Rings?
They are very hard to kill, but it is possible. Elrond uses one of the elven rings of power to sweep a group of Nazgul away with a deluge, destroying their physical bodies and sending their incorporeal essences fleeing back to Sauron. Sauron however was clearly able to return them to working order. In the third book, Eowyn and Merry together kill the Witch-king of Angmar, the lord of the Nazgul, the chief of the nine Ringwraiths, and this defeat is described as permanent.
What is the name of the scary cloaked men in the Lord of the Rings?
The completely cloaked beings are the Nazgul, or Ringwraiths, chief servants of the dark lord Sauron. They are the bearers of nine of the sixteen 'lesser rings of power', human kings who fell under Sauron's control a long time ago. Their rings extended their lives so far, stretched them so thin, that they have become invisible, so the cloaks and armour give them a physical form. The wearer of the One Ring can see their true forms, that of ancient and wizened men.
